Back for its 12th year, the Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF) will take place from December 9 – 16, 2015 at Madinat Jumeirah, the home of DIFF. The festival will see thousands of cinema-goers, actors, directors, producers, writers and industry experts descend on Dubai to enjoy the world’s best films in one of the world’s premiere locations.

The 12th Dubai International Film Festival will showcase over 120 features, film shorts and documentaries from around the world which will include a plethora of world premieres. Every year DIFF presents new and exciting cinema from the Arab world and beyond, introducing audiences to fresh new talent and original and distinctive filmmaking.

Abdulhamid Juma, Chairman, DIFF, said: « Firmly etched into the UAE’s calendar since its inception in 2004, DIFF has become an event that brings the community together to enjoy the best films from around the world, share knowledge and celebrate up-and-coming talent. Arab cinema has made great strides over the past decade, with more and more films reaching audiences both at home and abroad, and we are proud to say that DIFF has been a crucial part of this growth. As we look towards our 12th year, we are more excited than ever to share these incredible achievements with audiences from the UAE and beyond. »

The Dubai Film Market (DFM), DIFF’s industry arm was attended by over 2,500 industry representatives and film professionals from 81 countries last year. The DFM is now the leading industry platform in the region and the gateway to one of the fastest growing film and TV markets in the world. It provides unprecedented access to decision makers from the Middle East, Asia and Africa. The DFM offers excellent visibility to buyers, sellers, service providers and industry professionals through exhibition spaces, networking opportunities and a thoughtfully created film library.

DIFF will once again be hosting free public screenings throughout the Festival providing an opportunity for UAE fans to see global cinematic works absolutely free of charge.
